Jeez! 737 max. Apparently they’re at risk of catching fire now! What is up with these people?

matt,

Minor airworthiness directive to comply with; thousands of these "fixit" notices go out every year and the press is only reporting this one because it involves the MAX. And it's not that the airplane is at RISK of catching fire, it's a question of detection if CARGO were to catch fire.

Well I’m no aircraft expert, but I did spend 35 years in the fire service and was nearly killed when the seats caught fire during crash rescue training. It was unbelievable how fast fire spread through the aircraft. So to my way of thinking, if the cargo catches fire, the plane won’t be fire behind..

Funny that you'd be worried about flying yet have no problem riding a motorcycle....
Your a lot closer to the ground.
And that's why this AD prohibits carrying cargo in that hold till a part can be replaced in the affected airplanes.
No cargo = no fire
fwiw - I mentioned to a few of you at the rally that my buddy and I were bidding to recover the 737 ditched last month off of HNL.

My schedule went from retired to booked solid with prep.

Good to read the 2 crew made it out.
Not that, what are you going to do with the plane? Or, are you recovering it for the company?

Well I've been told there are way more airplanes in the ocean than there are submarines in the sky.
